Backup Problems
Chapter 6 87
• In a cluster environment on Disk Array XP, when the backup system
is a virtual server, or during local backup when the application
system (which is the same as the backup system) is a virtual server.
In this case, after a failover, replicas on the other (failed-over) system
cannot be properly removed from the database.
Action To remove the false entry from the VSSDB:
1. In the error messages, find the ID of the session which could not
remove the target volume.
2. Run:
omnidbvss -remove session <SessionID> -reference
where SessionID is the session which target volume(s) could not be
removed.
Upon successful removal, the command displays Removing
references of session <SessionId> from VSS DB.
